A successful LA artist, Roman Velasco appears to have everything he could possibly want - money, women, fame. Only Grace Moore, his reluctant, newly hired personal assistant, knows how little he truly has.

But Grace doesn't know how her boss secretly wrestles with those demons: by tagging buildings as the Bird, a notorious but unidentified graffiti artist - an alter ego that could destroy his career and land him in prison.

Publisher's Summary

Wonderful book!

This was another great story by Cathy Hake. So many twists and turns in this story. I just knew everything was not going to come out the way I wanted it to but everything came together wonderfully. Narrator did a great job.

My favorite!

Out of 7 (all 5 of her Gooden series and Letter Perfect and this one) Cathy Marie Hake's books this is my favorite. This book display's God's redemptive love is such an amazing way. The narrator, Stina Nielson, did a great job. I enjoyed her narrative skills in Forevermore too. I hope Cathy Marie Hake has more like this one.

no words to express the complexity of this book

i was amazed at the turns and twists this book takes true to form and i was hooked couldnt turn the player off the ending could have happened many ways the title says it all i loved it and will listen to it agian

Very Good

This book was very interesting, the way life does not always go how you would like it and how to meet that challenge is portrayed very well in this book, it was an excellent book and very well written and read
